Description

ELISA

The PTGES2 gene encodes for the enzyme prostaglandin E synthase 2 (PTGES2), which is crucial for the biosynthesis of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) from arachidonic acid. This enzyme operates downstream of the cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway, particularly interacting with COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. PTGES2 is involved in various physiological and pathological processes by generating PGE2, which functions in inflammation, fever generation, and pain. Notably, PTGES2 is a membrane-associated protein and is distinct in its role compared to other prostaglandin synthases due to its specific functional and regulatory properties. Its activity is essential in fine-tuning the levels of PGE2 in tissues, impacting numerous signaling cascades, including those involved in immune responses and vascular functions.
